1.- Know the different groups of drugs, the principles of its authorization, use and identification and mechanisms of their action.
2.- Use of medications by assessing the expected benefits and risks associated with and / or effects of its administration and consumption.
3.- Ability to safely administer drugs and other therapies
Teaching lectures will take place in theoretical content of the program and practical sessions and discussion of clinical cases with a bibliographical approach in which students develop, analyze and expose the contents of the subject and acquire the competence
Teaching will be developed inclasses of the theoretical contents and practical classes and discussion of clinical cases with a bibliographic orientation in which the student will develop, analyze and expose contents of the subject and will acquire the competences of this one.
3 scenarios are proposed (for 2 or 3 see remarks section).
Scenario 1: Adapted normality
Scenario 1 is characterized by coexistence with certain measures of prevention, self-protection of the population (facial masks, use of disinfectant gels, etc.) and maintenance of restrictions that affect events of a certain influx of people.
The measures of adaptation of the teaching corresponding to this scenario are:
The expository and interactive teaching will be face-to-face.
Tutorials can be carried out partially virtually.
The modality for carrying out the laboratory practices will be face-to-face.
3 possible scenarios (for scenario 2 and 3, see remarks section).
Scenario 1: Adapted normality
A) Continue:
-Contents corresponding to theory and seminar teaching through various face-to-face tests (20%).
-Contents corresponding to laboratories, with a bibliographic orientation in which the student will develop, analyze and expose contents of the subject and will acquire the competences of this (20%).
(B) Face-to-face final test of the contents corresponding to theory and seminar teaching (60%)
Both in the discussion of clinical cases and in the practices the participation of the students is obligatory, it is therefore necessary the previous preparation of the contents of the program that will be developed in them.
36 hours of individual study.
36 hours for the carrying out of work, readings and literature search
18 hours of personal work for the development of work practices and reports
Total self-employment: 90 hours
Students are advised to make use of tutoring outside school hours to help you plan your work, methodology and literature suggesting individually and assess the progression of the foreground
Teaching methodology:
Scenario 2: distancing
In this scenario, active protection measures will be applied, which must be complied with, such as safety distance, the use of face masks and organizational measures to control access and capacity. The measures of adaptation of the teaching corresponding to this scenario are:
Face-to-face teaching will coexist with virtual teaching.
The face-to-face and virtual teaching will be done in the subject schedule established by the Faculty of Nursing.
Scenario 3: Closure of facilities
In view of the measures provided by the health authorities, there may be a new confinement of the population, the closure of the University facilities and the determination of the essential functions that must be maintained. The measures of adaptation of the teaching corresponding to this scenario are:
The teaching will be completely virtual, and will be taught in the schedules of the subject established by the center.
Evaluation system:
Scenario 2: distancing
(A) Continued:
-Contents corresponding to expository and seminar teaching: It will be done by means of several face-to-face and / or telematic tests. In the latter case they will be oral tests (20%).
-Contents corresponding to laboratories, with a bibliographic orientation in which the student will develop, analyze and expose contents of the subject and will acquire the competences of this (20%).
(B) Final face-to-face or telematic test of the contents corresponding to theory and seminar teaching (60%). In the case of a telematic evaluation will be oral.
Both in the discussion of clinical cases and in the practices the participation of the students is obligatory, it is therefore necessary the previous preparation of the contents of the program that will be developed in them.
Scenario 3: Closure of facilities
A) Continue:
Contents corresponding to expository and seminar teaching through various telematic oral tests (20%).
Contents corresponding to laboratories, with a bibliographic orientation in which the student will develop, analyze and expose contents of the subject and will acquire the competences of this (20%).
(B) Telematic final exam of the contents corresponding to the theory and seminar teaching (60%) which will be an oral exam.
Both in the discussion of clinical cases and in the practices the participation of the students is obligatory, it is therefore necessary the previous preparation of the contents of the program that will be developed in them.
